Valentine’s Day For Kids: Sweet Pink Play Dough
Young kids can join in the Valentine’s Day fun by enjoying some creative play time with this Sweet Pink Play Dough. The dough is fun to make and kids will love its berry scent and sparkles.
Don’t forget to store your dough in an air tight container to keep it soft and ready to use again. It should last a good two weeks this way.
Supplies Needed
1 cup of all purpose flour
1/2 cup of table salt
1 cup water warm water
1 tablespoon of vegetable oil
2 teaspoons cream of tartar
3-4 drops of red food coloring
1 packet of pink lemonade flavored drink mix
1 tablespoon of white craft glitter
Directions
1. In your mixing bowl, mix the flour, salt, water, oil, cream of tartar, and drink mix in a bowl. Mix well until a soft dough begins to form.
2. Check the texture of your dough. If it is too sticky, add a little flour. If it is too dry, add a little more oil.
3. Add 3-4 drops of red food coloring to your dough and knead well. Continue to knead until the color is well dispersed.
4. Roll your dough into a ball and sprinkle well with the crafting glitter. You can then knead the dough some more and add more glitter if you please.
Enjoy!

How fun! I loved play dough as a kid. The sprinkles are perfect for a little girl on Valentines Day!
My kids love homemade play dough. I make send into their school, too!
Love projects where kids can get involved in “adult” stuff. My niece would love this, she’s all into that pink and glittery phase!
This is awesome! Will have to make with my son, I know he will enjoy making & playing with it.
homemade play dough is the best! I love this kind and I am pinning this for the future!
This is so cute! I love the sparkles. I didn’t realize how easy it is to make your own play dough. I definitely need to do this for my kids.
This is such a fun and cute idea. I’ve made Plato for my kids but never one with glitter in it. They would’ve loved this when they were kids
This play dough is so pretty! I love anything that has a little sparkle so I love the idea of being able to shape sparkly play dough too.
That’s cool! I have made playdoh for the kids for years, this is a nice way to spruce it up for a special holiday. They’d enjoy playing with this
